U0162 Lost Communication with Navigation Display Module
The Navigation Display Module has stopped transmitting on the vehicle data bus, so other control units no longer receive its messages. The navigation screen loses its display feed. Typical causes are loss of power or ground at the module, an open or shorted CAN/LIN bus wire, a connector fault, or an internal module failure.
